NVIDIA (NVDA) after doubling i

NVIDIA (NVDA) after doubling in three months, a pullback is possible, but strong AI demand and bullish outlooks still support long-term upside。。。

Markets remain strong despite mixed earnings, fueled by AI hype and rate-cut hopes. The gap may close if growth or policy shifts disappoint。。。

Nike (NKE) offers long-term value recovery; Deckers Outdoor (DECK) shows strong near-term growth. Both are buyable - Nike for value, Deckers for momentum。。。
